Optical / Protective Glass
75% contrast (20.1 inch)
Clear Float (19.0 inch & 21.3 inch)
Vacuum deposited antireflective coatings
72 gloss mechanical etch (to reduce glare)
Optically bonded to LCD (to minimize internal reflections and improve contrast in high ambient lighting conditions)
LED Sunlight Readable Backlights
Much lower power consumption, cost, footprint and cooling requirements than CCFL predecessor
Much longer life expectancy (120,000 hours) than CCFL predecessor
Cooling fans unnecessary (retained on GenStar II retrofit upgrades), resulting in noiseless operation; well below 55 dBA STARS requirement
LED Backlight Controller
Lower cost, improved reliability, and longer life (than GenStar II™ Intelligent Backlight Controller [IBC])
Full featured; supports most features of IBC predecessor as well as new
Eliminates features not previously used by ATC operators, such as ICARUS & DAEDALUS
Improved reliability and extended support
Remote brightness control interface, supporting lengths up to 160 feet
High Performance LCD Video Controller
Compatible with all STARS-approved video controllers (x7) & video modes/timings (x9)
Supports EIA-RS-343, separate, composite, Sync-on-Green video
Custom firmware to support 650 ms switch time between primary and secondary video sources
Ensures ATC operators can maintain airspace safety even after critical tower computer failure
Rugged, All-Metal Enclosure
Weighted specifically to match seismically certified STARS ceiling mounts, yokes and pedestal stands
Front accessible, intuitive user control
Rounded corners to promote safety
Matte black finish to reduce reflections
Power Supply
Smaller, less expensive, PFC (new monitors only), compared to GenStar II power supply (preserved for retrofits)
Field repairable; accessible without opening enclosure or voiding warranty
